I applied through other source. I interviewed at Edelman (Bengaluru) in Jun 2026
Interview
While the interview went well, they look almost a months time to get back on the offer. After a week after salary negotiations with the HR, they inform me after that they aren’t hiring anymore. I mean that’s too unprofessional, and lack of clarity.
